Verse:
MIm SI7 MIm SOL SI
To Bombay a travelling circus came,
FA#7 SI FA#7 SI
they brought an intelligent elephant and Nellie was her name.
One dark night she slipped her iron chain
and off she ran to Hindustan and was never seen again
music stops
Ooooooooooooooooh
chorus: faster
MI LA MI
Nellie the elephant packed her trunk and said good-bye to the circus
LA MI FA#7 SI7 MI
Off she went with a trumpety-trump, TRUMP! TRUMP! TRUMP!
MI LA MI
Now Nellie the elephant packed her trunk and trumbled back to the jungle
LA MI FA#7 SI7 MI
Off she went with a trumpety-trump. TRUMP! TRUMP! TRUMP!
Night by night, she danced to the circus band,
when Nellie was leading the big parade she looked so proud and grand
No more tricks for Nellie to perform
they taught her how to take a bow and she took the crowd by storm
Music stops
Ooooooooooooooooh
chorus
after last chord: C
SIb FA SIb FA
The head of the herd was calling far, far away;
SOL7 DO SOL7 DO
they met one night in the silver light on the road to Mandalay
Ooooooooooooooooh
chorus
